The point of very short films is that you can find big productions as well as small films made with a few bits and bobs… Sophie Labruyere, a director herself and a reporter of images, has chosen to turn the spotlight on these home made films on the poster she made for the 20th edition of Très Court. She knows the festival quite well:

I have got it on with Très Court for a few years, on the side of the selection team, so when asked if I wanted to make the poster obviously I was very pleased to say "yes!"

I am a director, I like telling stories, arranging images, making them with paper bits and camera bots. In the process of creating the poster of this 20th edition, I involved Clément Sautet, a friend who is also a director and a photograph, in the adventure. I invite you to discover and follow his work here: https://www.instagram.com/clement_sautet/.
